OF the Co.awater School ] cannot say too

children. aud placed IL homes over one

The State Prison at Jackson is an "Old

The four Insane Asylums have made ex-
haustive reports OF their conditions and

made for improvements, for the purchase Of
land, and for the building Of cottages, all Of
which | approve, except / recommend that
whatever moneys are expended by the Pom
tisc and Kalamazoo Asvlums shall be taken
from their surplus fund and no appropria-
ton from the Stale asked for. The Asylum
for Insane Criminals at lonia is ably man
aged but its location, overlooking the prison
yard rs II does, is most unfortunate. ! hope
Il will not be enlarged, but
that II may be turned into
much needed prison for women
and a new asylum, where ample lands can

insane. | recommend that the Trustees of

The mining interest OF Michigan has been
so very great although still "a its infancy.
that al that pertains 90 the scientific knowl-
